Zeswaft (1000), Seattle, Washington, USA May 2, 2006 I wouldn’t give this any award. This was hugely smoked. Some girl insisted it tasted like bacon. She wasn’t too far off. It’s an interesting brown ale to say the least. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA Feb 1, 2006 Citrusy, thin and light in body with a touch of roast to round out the flavor. Uneventful, like Nodding Head Brewery itself. Probiere (992), Iowa, USA Jan 31, 2006 Burnt char, woody acidity, chocolate notes, dark and toasty, but too acidic, too burnt, too ragged, and not smooth. xproudfoot (729), Paleolithic, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 14, 2005 Draught @ NH’s brewpub. deep black with look and its gone small head. the malts have a briney, sea salty flavor, subtle dark-bitter chocolate, full viscous body. quite smooth and has a light finish. earthy and very little carbonation. agreed this could be a good session beer, especially if you don’t want any sweetness in your dark session ale... beervana (781), Libertyville, Illinois, USA Dec 9, 2005 On tap at the Nodding Head Brew pub, Philadelphia, PA. Dark brown hued English style brown ale having small white diminishing head. No discernable carbonation. Sweet malt aroma. Medium bodied that starts with slightly sweet malt and toffee flavor. Finishes with slight sweet malt aftertaste. No discernable hops and bitterness. A good drinkable malty session beer. PWalk (337), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA May 17, 2005 One of my early favorites that I’ve lost contact with through the past couple of years. An extremely drinkable brown with a good malt flavor through out. Sammy (3934), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 13, 2005 very drinkable session ale. I seem to have enjoyed it far better than people in 2003 and 2004. So perhaps they have tinkered with it. Rich malt with some bitterness. Dark brown and lace. swirl (267), collingswood, New Jersey, USA Apr 11, 2005 A nice reddish brown color with an inviting aroma of roasted malt and some nuttiness. The taste is smooth but doesn’t last. Toward the end I was ready to try something else.
